Current Version: 1.0.2.4
Hihi again!
I know I'm a bit late to the party, but I wanted to post my relocalizer up for those of you who don't frequent the Tech Support area. Yesterday, R1CH, lhr0909 and I were in a miniature race to create a 1.5 relocalizer, and we've all completed our relocalizers, but one may lack the other's features, or vice versa.
I'm aiming to improve on that - I've supported all regions, and I've used my design skills to make the program as minimalistic as possible.
So what does this program offer more than lhr0909's relocalizer, which also has all of the regions? At this point, it doesn't do much more, but I'm the minimalistic design type of user, and I don't like to be clouded by controls everywhere on the form. That's why, at any one point, there's a maximum of 3 controls to look at.
What's so unique about my support for this program? I work closer with Tazerenix to figure stuff out. For example, the locales on the main thread were created by me, likewise for the server list, which was extracted from one of my upcoming programs.
After relocalizing the client to a new locale for the first time, you will need to download a ~1.5gb patch. This will only happen once per new locale - for example - if you've already relocalized to koKR before, you won't need to download a 1.5gb patch for koKR.
FAQ:
+ Show Spoiler +
Q: Will this change the language and audio of the Starcraft II client?
A: XRelocalizer will change the audio of the Starcraft II client based on what asset you use. The program will ask you to select the asset to use. The language cannot be changed, as it would result in an invalid language pack error.
Q: If I relocalize to a new region, do I need an account on that region to be able to play?
A: Yes
Q: Can you be banned for using this program?
A: This program does not change any files in a way which would promote hacking, therefore it is unlikely for you to get banned. Relocalizing is completed by the game by re-patching your client to the target locale.
Q: In the other post, R1CH said that the program sends emails, and to be wary of it.
A: The emails that were being sent were nothing more than non intrusive error messages which I've used in the past with STCI. However I've taken the email sender out since many people have used the relocalizer without fail. You can assure yourself of this by downloading my source code below.

In an effort to clean up the updating process, as well as unify all of my programs (upcoming ones too) together, I've taken a different approach to updating. If you're having problems with the program not working after download, please both PM me and try the old relocalizer from http://xplora.biz/XRelocalizer_Old.zip

Why we need 3 relocalizers now? Especially if they all do same function

Why don't u guys just work together??? The workload in maintaining your program will also be lighter.

They're not all the same functions, and I pointed this out in the OP, because I knew someone was going to ask this.
lhr0909's relocalizer uses separate files for each locale and does not allow for different assets, and if I want to relocalize to more regions, I can't use R1CH's relocalizer. This fixes on that

I'd work together, but I'm too shy to talk to them  In all honesty, we all use different languages, and having a competition is pretty fun!
I believe until the next patch comes, we'll have it easier. Next patch, Blizzard will most likely change the process like they did with STC every patch.

What you mean under "different assets"? Are you saying about having 2+ languages in one game client? But lhr0909's relocalizer already allows that, just change server, start launcher and it downloads any language, then change back and edit one line in variables.txt (localeidassets)
So what does this program offer more than lhr0909's relocalizer, which also has all of the regions? Firstly, his relocalizer doesn't let you change the assets, so you cannot use different sounds on a locale.
Secondly, I've also made the program a single file
It's just not have automatized part where it changes variables.txt line - localeidassets

I mean the sounds, which are part of the assets. There is a surprising amount of people on TL who wouldn't know how to edit that one line in the Variables.txt file, or even know about that.

I am sorry, but what exactly does this let you do? Just from reading the other comments, I am taking a guess and saying that it allows you to change the region that you play in? Like if I am on the NA server, I can play on the EU or KR server?

Yes, I know, but it's not in the program currently, I already have it in my program, and I've already made my program look better. Not only that, but I frequently release updates to my program. I'm not telling you to use it, I'm telling you it's better overall, at least currently.

As starter edition of course. If you have not bought license on that server.

If anyone has a zhCN SC2 Client, please PM me
Edit: The zhCN client is still on patch 1.4, so you cannot relocalize to it.

Before I used Bigfoot to relocalize. It also showed latency. Would it be possible to add that to your program?

Okay, you and lhr0909 have updated relocalizators. What the difference now? lhr0909 have more voice assets

Does there really need to be a massive difference? It now comes down to support, I aim to support my programs on a day to day basis and add features which people request ASAP. Besides, I probably stated this before, but I love competition between programmers. Also I like using my own programs because I know what they're doing and I'm assured that they'll work every time, and I want to be able to assure other people of the same thing.

So, I bought the game in PtBr but I want to play it in English (voices, text) and with English Hotkeys.
So I downloaded the game files in English, installed them and ran your relocalizer. Now, I can play the game with audio in English, but the text (and hotkeys) is still in English. I realized this may be caused by the way the new patch works, but is there a way I can play the game in English?
Thanks!

I believe it is currently impossible to change the text language with any of these tools. You can manually edit your hotkeys in the SC2 menu.

I used to be able to play on the TW/KR server (with TW client) using korean sounds, without using a localizer. Is this no longer possible? Having trouble searching for other threads with the answer ~_~

So wait your saying provided you have an account there on that server. So if I take my smurf and re localize it to KR from US that actually does nothing because I don't have a KR account? I don't understand the point here am I missing something?

Yes this program does not swtich your accounts, but your SC2 program. So you still need to pay 50 bucks for a KR account.

I'm using my own implementation of tracert, and I'm not pinging the servers. I'm still nailing it out, using tracert/net.networkinformation.ping is pretty new to me. I've got other things to work on first.
In a perfect situation like mine, the ping that the program shows should be the last hop of the tracert to the server through cmd, and that is what the ping in my picture shows It may just take a while to stabilize, it refreshes about every 5 seconds.

The new versions of this program now come with an auto updater

Thanks for the work on the program. In general it sucks for us users to try and figure out whih of the many programs out there works especially as the game gets patched and not everyone is on top of updating their program or keeping the OP up-to-date. (I've had issues trying between relocalizer, relocalizerx, Bigfoot, ...) But as long as there is a working one out there, I've got no complaints.

Thanks for the compliments dude <3. Like with STCI, my current main task is monitoring this thread for bug reports, and working on this program. I always keep my OP up to date, especially with the changelog. If you, as well as anyone else, have problems with this program or want to criticise or compliment it or me, please post! I love all your criticisms and compliments because I do this as a hobby which I support in my spare time <3

Released a major update today - a major UI overhaul, several threading fixes and the ping system has been redesigned to be more reliable. I'll still look at the ping system to make it even more reliable, but it's fine for now

I'm encountering a bit of strange behaviour. I can't say if it's new with the latest version because this is my first time using it.
When I run the program for the first time, everything behaves and works as intended. When I run it again for a second time, I get a runtime error that .NET Framework v4.0.30319 is suddenly needed.
Unrelated, there is an uncaught exception when there is no user profile in documents with the Variables.txt which will cause the program to crash.

Ooooh I know why, I forgot to set the updater to .NET 3.0. I'll release a new update in about 5 mins. You're going to have to redownload it manually though :|
Edit: Okay it's fixed now, you need to redownload it

Cool. I'll add that it worked regardless (I still had to run SC2 once so that the profile directories would get created)

It worked perfectly for a while, but now whenever I try to switch to EU (as opposed to NA), it tells me that "An unexpected file management error has occurred. Please try again." Did Blizzard change/update anything that would break XLocalizer?

That's weird, it works fine for me relocalizing to Italian, do you have a screenshot? When does this error occur? And what locale are you trying to relocalize to?

NA and KR is on 1.5.1, so if you relocalize to NA, and try to go back to EU, it will break.
Your client is temporarily stuck in 1.5.1 now
I am looking for a way to get my relocalizer to protect the update.

Oh I see, in that case the most you could 'protect the update' is to warn the user that the target locale client is on a different patch, unless I'm not understanding you correctly. I'll be implementing this later today, as I don't currently have my tools (at school >.>)

It's hard to grab version from anywhere tho. Feels like we need to manually maintain the versions.

I currently live in South Korea. I can go to a store and buy Starcraft 2.
I have gone to a PC-Bang (PC room with lots of computers set up for gaming) and logged in using my NA account. Everything was all in Korean, but after doing some clicking, I was able to do my placement matches (4W1L!!!)
I just finally installed Starcraft on my computer, but I am playing on NA, but would obviously like to be playing on KR. I am just a bit confused.
I would like to play Starcraft in English, on the Korean server. Do I already have an account on KR, since Ive played my matches?
Would it really just be easier to go and buy a new copy of the game? I would like it to be English though. Also, If i get the digital download, will it be in Korean? Will it ask which region I wish to play in?
Sorry lots of questions, please help!!!

Currently, whether you use any relocalizer or install a new copy of the game for KR server, the text will remain Korean. If you do relocalize to KR, unless you have a KR account, you won't be able to play on the server.
As for the text changing (as well as other mods like STC), I'm working with lhr0909 to figure out a way to do it, but we need time, and we don't have a rough estimate of how long it will take at the moment (we're still getting things sorted up). Sorry =/

OK. So since I am here I might as well just get a new copy, right?

Is there a way to relocalize the NA version to taiwan with this, but keep english writing? When I relocalized with this it changed all the writing to chinese so I have no clue what's what and can't really go through menus or profiles or anything. I was able with an older relocalizer version to change an NA client to taiwan but keep the english text/voice, but it seems neither this or the other new one do that.

Hello,
After using TW version for so long I decided to change it to KR language.
As written, I downloaded the 1.5gb patch.
In my variables.txt, the necessary lines are set to koKR
However when I log in (after typing acc + pass), I am unable to log in and I get message
"언어 팩필요" - Using translator it says "Language pack needs"
What should I do in this case ? I remember I had this problem when I was switching between NA and TW version
but simple change to zhTW would solve the problem.

It would certainly spell trouble for many people, but I hope this is not the case. I don't see how this could make Blizzard ban/lock your account, because it's not hacking.
But if that's the case, then I guess we will have to push to figure things out quicker than what we currently are. I'm still collaborating with lhr0909 so that maybe sometime in the future we could have these types of relocalizations without having to redownload a patch, and maybe have mods (at least until HoTS). We're hoping this would be finished sometime in the following 5 weeks.

I've repackaged and reuploaded the new XRelocalizerLauncher program, so if you had trouble with the one I uploaded last night because you were on .NET 3.0, I've fixed it now, and I've made it smaller and more efficient. I've got a Battle.net launcher that I've been working on for a couple of months now that I'm going to release as alpha soon. That program will also use this new launcher, so I'm trying to push it towards being bugless for the time being.
Working on fixing a couple of things with the relocalizer now, which will include the tie problem

Hi - I'm having some issues with patching.
I play on EU and I want to relocalize onto NA, but when the relocalizer wants me to open starcraft, it won't patch.

So I downloaded this to play some terran on NA but everytime I start a ladder game it loads to full and then just takes me back to the main menu and gives me a loss. Not quite sure what I can do to fix this. It was happening with riches one too.

If you do relocalize to KR, unless you have a KR account, you won't be able to play on the server. As for the text changing (as well as other mods like STC), I'm working with lhr0909 to figure out a way to do it, but we need time, and we don't have a rough estimate of how long it will take at the moment (we're still getting things sorted up). Sorry =/ Bumping the thread to discuss, have you been able to successfully relocalize Korean clients in PC bangs?

Global play is live, you don't need to use any tool to change your client language anymore.
